TRACKOUT CONTROL
Keep the dirt where it belongs
Keep the dirt where it belongs
Solutions
The Challenge Mud and debris carried onto public roads from construction sites creates safety hazards and can trigger council compliance orders that shut down operations.
The Solution FODS trackout control matting effectively removes mud and debris from vehicle tyres at site exits, keeping roads clean and projects compliant.
What Makes Trackout Control Demanding
Ground Stability
Mud and debris carried from site onto public roads creates hazardous, uncontrolled driving conditions.
- Road Contamination
- Traction Loss
Environmental Protection
Trackout spreads site sediment into stormwater systems and waterways, breaching environmental controls.
- Sediment Runoff
- Drainage Contamination
Operational Efficiency
Council fines and road clean-up orders halt site operations and damage contractor reputations.
- Compliance Shutdowns
- Contractor Penalties
Performance Over
Unstable Ground
Deploy rapid access systems that protect the environment while supporting heavy loads.
Load Distribution
Engineered composite mats distribute weight effectively, preventing bogging and ground damage.
Rapid Deployment
Quick installation and removal means minimal downtime and maximum productivity.
All-Weather Access
Our systems provide reliable access in any weather conditions, keeping projects on schedule.
Reusable Systems
Durable construction allows for multiple deployments, reducing overall project costs.

Gate Positioning
For maximum effectiveness, FODS trackout mats should be positioned so all wheels of the longest vehicle on site fully traverse the mat before reaching the public road. JWA recommends a minimum mat run of 6 metres for standard site vehicles.
Supplementary Measures
On high-clay-content sites or during extended wet periods, trackout mats work best in combination with a wheel wash station. JWA can advise on integrated entry/exit configurations that satisfy the most demanding council compliance requirements.

FODS Melbourne Trials
FODS Trackout Control Mats, an innovative approach to sediment control on construction site entrances, are in high demand in its US home ground. But how do they perform in Australian conditions and workplace standards? We put them to the test on two of Victoria's major road and rail infrastructure projects.
